Dream Theater is my personal favorite band of all time, despite the fact that I don't like the singer much.  It sucks that Portnoy (the drummer) left the band, but I'm raving to hear their new album due out next month.  John Petrucci is truly my favorite guitarist ever, and I like a lot of guitar players.

What's your favourite album, may I ask?

That's hard to say; kinda like picking one of your children over the other. 

I guess it'd have to be between Images and Awake.  There's so many great songs on so many of their albums.  Octavarium is definitely my least favorite, though.

What's your favorite?

Images, so many great songs excpecially Pull Me Under, Take The Time, Under A Glass Moon. Second to it Awake or Metropolis. Metropolis is the best refined album but still I find a bit overblown at times, Awake on the other end is their most original album imo, also it's the one with the most inspired Petrucci but still I think it should have been a little shorter,  the last part of the album (liftin shadows and scarred) is not as good as the rest. Awesome band, but I had problems listening to their more recent albums, mostly I don't like very much how Ruddess plays (in general), and Petrucci I feel lately is trying too much to be metal so his arrangements are not as good as before, however I'm still waiting for the next album too.
